Synopsis
An exhilarating memoir from the original "bad boy" of cooking and a thrilling look behind the doors of a 3-star kitchen.
Without question, the original rock-star chef is Marco Pierre White. Anyone with even a passing interest in the food world knows White is a legend. The first British chef (and the youngest chef anywhere) to win three Michelin stars-and also the only chef ever to give them all back-is a chain-smoking, pot-throwing culinary genius whose fierce devotion to food has been the only constant throughout a life of tabloid-ready turmoil. In THE DEVIL IN THE KITCHEN, White tells the story behind his ascent from working-class roots to culinary greatness, leaving no dish unserved as he relays raucous and revealing tales featuring some of the biggest names in the food world and beyond, including Mario Batali, Gordon Ramsay, Albert Roux, Raymond Blanc, Michael Caine, Damien Hirst, and even Prince Charles. With searing honesty and wicked humor, he gives us insight into how one becomes a great chef, what it's like to run a 3-star kitchen, and why, sometimes, you really do need to throw a cheese plate at the wall."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
About the Author
Marco Pierre White was born in Leeds in 1961. After training in Britain's finest kitchens, he opened Harveys, which earned two Michelin stars and was London's most talked-about restaurant. From there, he went on to win a third star and build a gastronomic empire that includes many of the most acclaimed restaurants in the U.K. In 1999, he retired from the kitchen and handed back his Michelin stars, but he maintains his presence in the culinary world with Luciano and the Frankie's restaurants, among others. He lives in West London with his wife, Mati, and their three children. He also has a daughter by his first wife.
